Are these two parts interchangeable?
Part No. 28 in this diagram: and part No. 24 in this diagram: It's easy to say "no" as they are different part numbers. However they are very close. Here's a picture of part 24 (930-424-241-00): I need part 28 (914-424-241-02). If anybody could verify the distance from the center of the screw to the flush end I would very much appreciate it. It's about 1 7/8" on part 24. Thanks |

While they seem to be interchangeable, and both attach to the rod identically, using the tailshift piece at the console of a sideshift trans doesn't work out too well.
The ball cup bushing hangs out of the end, jams, and breaks quickly. Somewhere around here I have a tailshift piece which I extended using a 12pt. socket at the race track, after discovering (the hard way) that I had used the wrong piece when assembling the car. Fortunately I had a spare bushing in my parts box as well. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) |

Probably got you through the day. I had a hunch the one part was longer. Other than length, the tail shift piece does look like it would work. It only needs another 1/4" so it's easy to confuse the two. Thanks for clarifying, guys. |
